Topic: Something's wrong with my money!! (Read 917 times)

I don't know if it is normal or not, but there's something weird with my money. 21 game days ago, i leased a used 734. I still have 500K left in my account. The next day my 732 was having C-check for about 900K, so i've gone red about -400K. On the 19th day, it was reduced by half and i have an income of -200K. But on the 18th day, i have -600K in my account . That things just keep happening every game day [got 200k today and my money doubled on the next day (red! )]. The worst was on 16 game days ago, when i have -1,5 million. Now, things are getting a little bit better (my money are -869k). Can someone give me some explanation about this??

With CGK-HKG-PVG routing you are transporting passengers CGK-HKG and HKG-PVG. The game basically handles them as two separate flights. No passengers travel CGK-PVG. If you want to accomplish that, you have to have a direct flight or make HKG a technical stop, where no passengers board or deboard.

So any labor costs outside of Pilots/FA is also not in there. Nor are Loan Payments/Interest, Taxes, etc. In addition to the big fixed maintenance costs that Kontio mentioned.

The "Profits" on that Aircraft screen are simply your GROSS profits. Not your NET Profits. You can very easily make a gross profit and still actually be losing money.

Gross Profit is simply how much it cost to fly THAT flight versus how much ticket revenue you sold for THAT flight. It doesn't factor in the people you have at headquarters you have to pay. Or the people you have at the gates at the airports that flight departed from. Or any fixed maintenance costs for your fleet. Or any training costs for any of your staff. Etc, Etc, Etc.
